SCRAP PROCESSORS, INC
306 SE 5th St, Des Moines, Iowa, United States

With only a pick-up truck, Texas-native Myer “Mike” Silverstein began to collect and sell scrap metal. While cruising through Webster City on the hunt for metal, he saw his opportunity. He bought some land and set-up shop, Webster City Iron & Metal Co.

Through the years, Mike acquires additional property. In 1951, he relocates the business to what is now Scrap Processors, Inc. (SPI), at 505 Seneca Street in Webster City, Iowa.

Mike’s sons, Ben and Kenny, join the team. Together they expand the company to include not just scrap yards, but auto parts and convenience stores, too — all located in Central Iowa.

In the wake of both Mike and Kenny’s retirements, Ben shifts SPI’s focus back to scrap-metal processing and recycling.

SPI’s services are designed to meet all types of residential, commercial, and industrial scrap-metal-recycling needs. Receive top dollar for your scrap at one of our three convenient locations. We’ll come pick it up from you. 
Have a big job? We offer a full line of collection vehicles and containers, too.

SPI offers competitive pricing for most types of ferrous and nonferrous metals, including sheet iron, tin, aluminum, brass, copper, and many more.

Discarded appliances must be stripped of all hazardous components prior to recycling. It’s the law. And SPI will help you comply. We are certified in the process to demanufacture and will ensure your old appliances are safely processed and recycled.

We drop it off. You fill it up. We come and get it. SPI’s container and trailer options make it easy to manage scrap metal on your commercial or industrial jobsite — and save yourself multiple trips to the yard.
